  • Abstract
    Asthma is one of respiratory diseases that its symptom does not appear permanently. There are various situations that can be a stimuli for asthma symptoms. Thus, it is difficult to protect patients from an uncontrollable environment. Since most people in Thailand own smartphone either for their personal usage, such as note, calculator, calendar, or communicate with others via applications. Thus, this paper proposed an M-Learning System where the guideline for using inhaler based on the correct inhaler technique is presented as a video. The expected outcome is that patients can develop their skill on using an inhaler device correctly. As a consequence, patients will have a low risk for their lives.
